Scientology

This book by J. Gordon Melton about The Church of Scientology – Studies in Contemporary Religion” is an unbiased look at Scientology from a leading religious scholar and educator. Melton is the director in Santa Barbara of the Institute for the Study of American Religion, and the author of the Encyclopedia of American Religions and 20 other works.

Get Clear! – an article about Scientology from an Indian Perspective. Interesting to see someone piece together the connection (there is one!) between Scientology and ancient Indian philosophy, from the Indian viewpoint.

ReligiousTolerance.org – I had some discussions with the editor of this independent site about his pages on Scientology. He was very hard-headed, but something I said must have soaked through, because the resultant changes he made in the article make it a lot more truthful in its discussion of Scientology.

What is Scientology – a good overview of the subject. Why does it need an overview? Because it has so many pieces: drug education and rehabilitation, promotion of literacy through specific tools, handling of spiritual trauma, self-improvement, etc.

The Scientology Handbook – well, it’s way too big to be a “hand”-book, but it does have all the basic information in it. Worth reading and applying; when I review it I see many tools that have changed my life for the better.

CCHR Section

CCHR is the Citizens Commission on Human Rights, established in 1969 by the Church of Scientology and Dr. Thomas Szasz. I’ve been a member since 1972 when I first found out about it. It is a citizens watchdog group — apparently the only one that oversees and exposes the human rights abuses of the psychiatric profession. If you’ve ever seen a banner at an APA convention that said “PSYCHIATRY KILLS” — that’s CCHR at work!
